Abstract

A strip (10, 50, 80, 100, 102, 170, 220, 222) for use with a surgical stapler (150, 200) facilitates sealing tissue of a patient, such as the lungs, stomach, etc. The strip (10, 50, 80, 100, 102, 170, 220, 222) includes retaining elements (20, 22, 62, 64, 70, 94, 96, 122, 124, 132, 134, 172, 186, 244, 246, 224, 234, 230, 244, 246) near opposed ends of the strip for connecting to associated parts of a surgical stapler device. An aperture (24, 60, 90, 176, 240) also extends through the strip at a location intermediate its opposed ends for receiving an alignment feature (178, 210) of the surgical stapler. In addition, a pair of strips (100, 102) may be connected together by a bridge (120) of material to facilitate selection and use of appropriate strips.
